      Ricky Hatton was overrated when he was active. Now he is retired he is underrated.

      He's no ATG by any stretch, but he was a good fighter.

      2 weight division champion. One of which was Lineal Champion.

      Beat plenty of solid fighters and wasn't afraid to fight the best fighters in the world.

      Considered both Top 10 and Top 5 P4P a times during his career.

      Ricky deserves respect, at least.

        I don't think I ever heard anyone actually overrate Hatton like saying 'he's an all time great' or anything like that, so I don't get what the OP is trying to argue...

        Truth is, Hatton beat everyone that was put in front of him at 140 with the exception of the Pacquiao execution and his only other loss was at 147 against Floyd in a somewhat competitive fight.
